ok so im on my period...funfun...and my tummy hurts like never before...what are somethings/anything i can do/take to feel better? 13/f if that helps?(not my first time also)
Take Midol! It works =]
Also, just try to relax if you can. Put a heating pad or something on it. Hope it feels better
I am tired of looking at my plain white painted windowsill in my dorm. What's a plant that looks pretty but will not die if (more like when) I forget to water it, or leave it shut up in my cold room for a month while I am at home for break?
I don't know about a plant that would live a month with no water in the cold =/ But you definately could buy some fake plants! I've seen a lot that are really pretty and look totally real! And you don't have to take care of them at all =)
Can anyone give me good brands of Hair Straightners? Doesn't matter if expensive, just the best brands in your perspectives. Thanks.

I use Hot Tools: Professional. Works GREAT =)
so im 15, and i've been wearing tampons for quite a while now, and well ive never done this, but ive always wondered if you can pee while the tampon is still in you? because when i try to, it feels like its being pressured out, so i just take it out while i pee and just put a new tampon in..
Yeah, actually you can. The tampon goes in a different place then where you pee out of, so really it's not affecting it. That feeling you're getting is probably just a mental thing. It WON'T come out unless (1) It's not in properly, or (2) You pull it out. And I'm sure you are doing it properly, since you've been using them for awhile now. The only thing is--Just hold the string out of the way when you pee, so it doesn't get wet =)
Hey, does anybody know where I can find lyrics by Hollywood Undead? I looked on google, but cannot find them. Any help thank you! I'll rate.
Go to their myspace:

& in the music player box thing, whatever song you want lyrics for, click "Lyrics" under that song. =]

-Twister
-Truth or Dare
-Listen to music
-Take pictures
-Bake cookies OR experiment with different types of food mixed together! (fun!)
-Other types of food you could make: Smores, rice krispie treats, sundaes, etc.
-Pillow fight!
-Karaoke
-Give eachother makeovers
-Tell scary stories
-Come up with a scavenger hunt (ex: from the 'Sleepover' movie!)
There are SOOO many things you can do at a sleepover. The point is to have AS MUCH FUN AS POSSIBLE. I hope it turns out that way for you ! :)
For my art project, I have to draw a big game board, and as the title implies, I'm doing a Pink Floyd version of Monopoly. I'm not sure on what do label the street names like: Park Place, Boardwalk, New York Ave., etc. For anyone that knows of the band, any ideas? All I have so far is in the corner for the jail, a clock that reads Time [get it?]. Thanks in advance, will rate.
I'm not EXTREMELY familiar with Pink Floyd, but I have an idea.
You could use song titles, album names, band members, or lyrics as the street names.
:)
My Best friend in the whole entire world might be moving. I mean FAR away. Like I live in Ky and she might be moving back to Michagan. I don't have any other friends. And it really hurts me cause I am afraid that she will move and I will never see her again. The same thing happend with my old friend Allison. She moved and I haven't herd from her in a year. I don't know what I am going to do. I have no friends but her. Please guys help me. Cause I am so hurt... 13/F
I know how it feels, my best friend might be moving to the other side of the country :(
You say you have no other friends? Talk to people. Get to know them. Don't be shy, it'll never work if you're shy! Just walk up to people and be like "Hey, I'm ________, what's up?". Then go from there =)
But about your best friend, once she moves, you can DEFINATELY see her again. I'm sure your parents would understand. Either she could come back and visit every once in awhile, or you could go there. Call eachother, IM eachother. Keep in touch.
Friends DO grow apart, and it sucks. But it's a part of life. You'll meet new friends, She'll meet new friends, and you may stop talking to eachother completely. You just grow apart. I KNOW it hurts, but it's the truth. I hope it works out =/ If you want to talk, or just need a friend, don't hesitate, I'll be here :)
im a freshman boy in high school and im in a realationship with a girl tht ive known for a long time weve been going out for 7 months and are parents know each other also. Although i still like her i dont think the relationship is working out and theres another girl who i think i like but i not sure wht do i do
So she's kind of like.. the girl next door? The girl you & your family have known forever..
Okay, let me see what you just said.
You've been going out with this girl for 7 months. You don't think the relationship is working out. & You *think* you like another girl, but your *not sure*.
Those stars are important. You're not positive if you like this girl or not. But there's one thing I'm wondering.. Why don't you think this relationship is working between the two of you? Is it because you think you like this other girl? Or is it a reason pertaining to your girlfriend? These are questions you have to ask yourself..
So if it's something that has to do with your girlfriend, try to work it out with her. You've been going out for 7 months, it shows that you really have something. If you had an argument or something, try to fix it. Often, teens don't understand that when two people are in love, and they have a disagreement or something of that kind, they WORK IT OUT. They are in love.. They don't break it up over some little thing.
Is she acting differently than she used to? Is that why you don't think it's working out? If she is, for example, acting depressed or maybe a little snobby/moody, try to talk to her. Don't be all up in her face though, just subtly ask her what the problem is. If she doesn't want to talk, she doesn't want to talk. But just let her know that you are there for her if she needs anything. Note that if she doesn't want to talk the first time, and this keeps happening, you'll need to try to talk to her again, or this relationship might not work (because the lack of communication between you two).
Alright, back to the two options (Is it because of your girlfriend, or the girl you like?). If your girlfriend has done nothing different, and you don't think that it will work out BECAUSE you like this other girl, then you really need to think about it. You only THINK you like this girl, you're not sure. Think about this: Are you happy with your girlfriend? Is she your world? Or does this other girl interfere..at least in your mind? If it is because of the girl you like, do you think you could give up on your girlfriend for the other girl? You REALLY need to think about it if that is the reason..
Yeah, so those are some things to think over. Because you really need to think it over.. Hope it works out the way you want it to :)
im making something for my b.f. for his birthday.. i need an idea of a quote i can put inside.. nothing to corny.. something that has some meaning.. any help ? will rate
"I love you, not only for what you are, But for what I am when I am with you.."
"Love is composed of a single soul inhabiting two bodies."
"Real love stories never have endings."
"Two souls and one thought, two hearts and one pulse."
"Only from the heart can you touch the sky."
"The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched - they must be felt with the heart."
..It's pretty simple to find them. Just go to Google and search "love quotes" or something along those lines :)
I had tennis try outs today. I didn't expect to make it, because there were 40 guys fighting over 6 spots, so I wasn't too bumbed when I didn't make it.
My family is making comments about the coach and how they should have picked me, all in the spirit of making me feel better. But I got over it while I was walking off the court, how do I make them get over it?
They are probably just saying that to make you feel better because they might not know you're over it. Make it known. Just say something like "It's okay. Really, it is. I would like it if I had made it, but I'm fine that I didn't. There's something else out there for me, and I'll get it eventually.."
This will show your parents that you are mature about the situation, and maybe they can stop attempting to make you feel better :)
Hi
I really like this girl, but cant seem to get her to like me. What should i do?
You CAN'T make someone like you.
Talk to her, flirt, see if she flirts back.
That will tell you if she's interested or not. But don't jump to conclusions if she doesn't, she may just be shy. Become friends, and take it from there.. =)
Hey guys! I'm 13 years old (almost 14) and I am in 8th grade. Next year, (which is not too far away) I will be in high school (freshman). For those of you IN ninth grade or over, does it suck? It scares me because I will be going to a school with 17 and 18 year olds and I'll be only 14 when I go to high school! Is it scary to go to high school? I've heard so many bad things about high school... the boys are the worst... I could probably survive in an all girls school because boys that I klnow are just mean except a few. I'm really scared knowing that I will be in high school! Can anyone give me some comforting advice to help me feel better because everyday, I get scareder knowing that another day is past and I'm that much closer to high school? I'm just scared... can anyone help me... seriously! I don't want sarcasm or rudeness in yall's answers. I'm just looking for a little comfort... Thanks!
P.S. I rate 5's to those of you who answer to me and who are being serious about the question and not goofing off...
Thanks!
Luv, Kay
I just started high school this year, and believe me, I felt the same way as you before school started. BUT it's such a breeze now. ACTUALLY, I like it even more than middle school :) You get like WAY more freedom in high school. I love it. But back to being scared..I definately was. I was like "OMG I'm going to be late to class everyday! OMGGG". Yeah, haha, but it's really not all that bad. But a confession: I couldn't find the cafeteria on the first day of school ;) That's pretty sad, isn't it? Yeah, but I got it eventually :)
Also, either at the end of 8th grade or at the end of summer (right before school starts), there should be some sort of an orientation (where you go to the HS you'll be attending). You might have had one for middle school. At my orientation, they took us around the school, gave us our schedules, showed us where our lockers are & we got to try to open them. It does help a little bit, so I would definately say go to that. Also, this sounds kind of stupid, but get a map of your high school when you can. MY high school provides a map on the back of our agenda books, so that is very helpful. Believe me, you may say "Ahh, I'll look like a dork!". But wouldn't you rather know where you are going? Just get one, it WILL be helpful.
Now..the part about going to school with upper-classmen.. It's really not that big of a deal. I'm pretty short, and there are like 7 foot kids walking next to me sometimes. You get used to it. Yeah, some kids ARE harsh, and might push around in the hall, but usually that is just to get to class on time. You may find it helpful to do it yourself sometimes too ;)
A hint on NOT being late to class: If you will be attending a very crowded school (like mine, about 600 per grade), then yes, the halls WILL be crowded. You need to make your way through to get to class on time. As I said above, you may need to push every once in awhile ;) But just remember, they may give you dirty looks, haha. Try to figure out the shortest route possible to your class (again..another place where a map would help). Don't worry about talking to your friends in the halls, unless you are positive that you have the time and won't be late.
If you are not much of a homework person, and you have some strict teachers, then you might want to get on it. Get the homework done. Don't procrastinate, it will just come back to haunt you later on.
If you get stuck in a class, GET HELP RIGHT AWAY. The teacher will most likely NOT slow down just for you. Possible ways of getting help: Staying after school with a teacher OR see if your school has any programs for helping students out. For example: My school has a late study for most subjects. It's in the evening for a couple hours and a teacher will be there to help you. I'm not sure if your school will have that, but you can ask. Also, your school will most likely have a peer tutoring program (where an upperclassmen tutors you in whatever subject you need help in). Again, I can't stress it enough: If you are stuck, Get help ASAP. IT WILL come back to haunt you if you don't, because school is like building blocks. Once you learn something, you just keep growing off of that. So if you don't understand something, and your teacher moves on and keeps teaching more lessons in which you'll need to know the stuff you don't get, it won't be good.
Now that I have lectured about some of the many aspects of the world of high school, I'll let you go. Don't worry too much, you'll make some new friends, and have a great time. You'll love it :)

I am asking this because I don't really know where else to look. My hair always poofs up, no matter what I do and it looks terrible and is a hassle. It will stay normal looking though after I take a shower or wet it down, but when it dries it ALWAYS poofs up, I mean it stays together,becomes dull looking, poofs up and doesn't look good. Normally I will just use gel to get it in better shape and make it look atleast somewhat good (as in it doesn't poof up) and make it look less poofed up, but I don't always want to use gel.
I guess what I am trying to ask for help on is this, is there anything I can use on my hair that will make it not poof up and doesn't involve gel (as in I could just get up in the morning, comb my hair *or not* and go about my day normally with hair that isn't gelled or poofed up).
This really bugs me and I hope here atleast I can get some help in fixing it. Thank you.
After you get out of the shower, blow dry your hair until it's completely dry. Letting hair air-dry after showering always makes it 'poof'. My hair does the same. I have naturally straight hair, but when I let it air dry, it gets wavy and frizzy. But if I blow dry it, it will be straight and not as frizzy. I also straighten my hair, but I don't know if you want to do that (since you're a guy and all..). But it's definately something you could try one time. After your hair is COMPLETELY dry, just the run the straightener through it! It helps! Just make sure your hair is not wet at all, cause if you put the straightener on it, it will form steam, and it won't even straighten it. Also, don't hold on the straightener on a part of your hair too long or it will burn! Not good :)
What is the answer to the following equation?
30 + (10x13) divided by 2-25 =
It doesn't come out even.
30 + 130 = 160
160/-23 = like 6.9565.... and so on.
I don't see why you'd need to figure that out if it doesn't come out even though.
Do you have to use itunes?
Yes, you do. The CD to put it on your computer will come with your Ipod. You need iTunes to put the songs on your Ipod. If you don't put itunes on your computer, there is no way of putting the songs on your ipod :)
______
EDIT: "Ohkay, so I can have Limewire and get songs from their and transferthem to limewire right?~??"
I think you mean get songs from Limewire and transfer them to Itunes. And YES, that's what you do :)
Ok, I am not a computer whiz or anything so keep that in mind with your answers.
I want to put pictures, it is a comic actually, in the comment box of one of my friends. I cannot figure out to do this, so I tried to put a link in. That didn't work either. So I was wondering if anyone could help out a girl?
Appreciated!!!
Hm, I'm pretty sure this will work. I put a picture in my ABOUT ME section successfully, so I'm sure it will work for a comment :)
Okay, open the picture in Paint first. Go to "Image", then "Stretch/Skew". For stretch, make it like 40% for each box. Then click OK. If that's not a good size, keep resizing it until it's good. Then save it. Then go to http://www.photobucket.com (make an account if you don't have one). Upload the saved picture (make sure it's the one you resized). Then once you upload it on Photobucket, go down to where your picture is on that page, and the first box underneath it should say URL. Right click & copy the URL. Then go to your friend's myspace and type in ' '. Fill in the URL you copied from Photobucket where it says URL. I'm pretty sure that should work, but I'm not positive. It works if you want to put a picture in your About me :) Just let me know. If not, I'll try to find another way for you :)
I'll rate you good.
I want an ipod for Christmas. I have a few questions.
What is cheapest? What holds the most songs? How do you connect it to your computer? How much will they be? What ipod do you have/ recommend?
Where can I get FREE music? Where do YOU recommend I get music? (Limewire, Ares, etc..) Does it cause many viruses? How do you get the music into the Ipod?
Well, I got my ipod last Christmas, so I have an ipod mini. I'm not sure if they still sell them though. I like it because it was like $200, and it holds about 1000 songs. I mean, if you get the regular Ipod, that holds 10,000 songs. Do you really think you'd have that many songs on there? I havent even got to 200 yet :) It's pretty simple to connect it to the computer. It comes with a wire that you hook to the bottom of your ipod, and the other end hooks into the thing in the front of your computer. I can't remember the name of the thing it hooks into, but it should tell you in the instructions.
Well, just a little tip for you: I think that whenever you download music for free, you are taking a risk at viruses. I don't think there is any program that is 100% safe. BUT, I would recommend LimeWire. That is what I used to use, but I don't download music anymore. To get the music from LimeWire to iTunes, you just have to like open the files and transfer them. I'm not quite positive on that one though =/ But once the songs are on the iTunes (the program that comes with your ipod to hold the songs in a library), you just plug your ipod into your computer, and it will automatically transfer your songs from your library to your ipod. If something wasn't clear enough, feel free to ask :)
I've had my period since July, and it's already starting to become regular. Is this a good time to start using tampons? I want to begin using them before the volleyball season comes up because I heard you can see pads through your spandex shorts. Any tips on using them, like how to know when it's in, how exactly to use the applicater, and how to get it in ? Thanks guys :)
Yeah, I'm sure you could start using them. I started about 5-6 months after I first got it, and it wasn't even regular yet. No biggie. But yeah, if you are starting volleyball, I would definately recommend using tampons because they are just easier and def. more comfortable :) And as the person below me said, being active WILL make your period irregular, so just be prepared, and always have extra tampons/pads with you. It sucks if you forget =/ When you buy tampons, there should be a piece of paper in there that explains exactly how to do it. If you can't find it, or they haven't provided one, feel free to ask! I'd gladly explain it to you if you need more help. You might not get it at first though;Some of my friends just started using them not too long ago, and they said they couldn't get it at first. And I totally agree. It's confusing the first time you do it. BUT once you get it, it will be extremely easy from then on :)
